People like to do things that will make them successful. If you do something and it doesn’t work then you adjust and try to make it better, and then rinse and repeat. 人們喜歡做那些會讓他們成功的事，如果你做了某些事但沒有產生效果，那麼做出調整並 嘗試讓它變得更好，然後周而復始地做。 For the Sacramento Kings, they’re trying to figure out what the best lineup i s to start the game. You don’t have to start five offensive juggernauts but y ou need to find a balance that makes it easier for everyone involved to thrive . With a new head coach in Dave Joerger, his job is to figure this out. 對於國王隊而言，他們試著找出最好的先發陣容，你不必找五個進攻最好的球員，但你需 要找到一個攻守平衡的陣容讓每個球員都參與其中並打得更好，對於新的總教練Dave Joe rger來說，他的工作是做好這一點。 In total, the Kings have had eleven different starting lineups since the year began and eleven different players have started a game this year. 總結來說，國王隊從開季到目前為止，總共有11套不同的先發陣容，11個不同的球員都打 過先發。 What does that mean? Is that a lot? Well, if you compare that to a team like t he Warriors you see that the Warriors started nine different players this year but only five of them have started more than three games. 這意味著什麼? 太多了嗎? 如果你拿勇士隊來做比較，你會發現勇士隊這季已經有9個不 同球員打過先發，但其中只有5個球員先發超過三場。 In other words, the Warriors have their starters locked up and every now and then somebody misses a start because of an illness or a family emergency or something like that. 換句話說，勇士隊已經確立了先發陣容，除非其中有人遭遇傷病、家庭因素或是諸如此類 的問題而缺陣。 For the Kings, not only have they started eleven different people, but eight d ifferent players have started at least twelve games this year. They’re still trying to figure out what works for them. 對國王隊來說，他們不僅用了11個球員作為先發，其中還有8個球員先發至少12場，他們 還在試圖弄清什麼先發組合才是真正有效果的。 Now, are the Kings the same as the Warriors? God no, but that’s not the point . Do you know the best season the Kings have had since 2006? In 2008, they wen t 38-44. So, as long as the team goes .500 and wins 41 games fans will lose th eir minds with happiness. 現在國王隊和勇士隊一樣嗎? 當然不，但那不是重點，你知道國王從2006年以來最好的賽 季是什麼時候嗎? 在2008年，他們取得33勝44敗，所以只要球隊取得五成勝率及贏得41場 比賽，粉絲就會陷入瘋狂。 We’re 39 games into the season and the only two starters that started in game one that still start now are Rudy Gay and DeMarcus Cousins. That makes sense since they’re clearly the two most talented players on the team. Who else do you go with and why? 我們從開季到現在打了39場比賽，只有Rudy Gay和DeMarcus Cousins持續先發。這是有道 理的，因為他們是球隊最有天賦的兩個球員，還有誰會讓你這麼想? 為什麼? In ten of the first 13 games, the Kings started Ty Lawson, Arron Afflalo, Gay, Cousins and Kosta Koufos. It made sense considering they signed Afflalo in the offseason and Lawson was the only viable point guard on the roster at that time due to the eight- game suspension Darren Collison had received. They went 4-9 in those 13 games and Joerger decided to try something different. 在開季的前十三場比賽，國王隊使用 Ty Lawson, Arron Afflalo, Gay, Cousins 和 Kosta Koufos先發，這是有道理的，考慮到他們在休賽期間簽下Afflalo 和 Lawson 是當 時唯一可用的控衛，因同時間Darren Collison正面臨8場禁賽，他們在13場比賽中打出4 勝9敗，而Joerger 打算開始做不同的嘗試。 Since then, they’ve swapped Afflalo for Ben McLemore, and then swapped McLemo re for Garrett Temple. They went to Matt Barnes when Gay got hurt and they made Collison the starter at point guard for the rest of the season. 從那時起，他們把Afflalo換成Ben McLemore，然後再把McLemore換成Garrett Temple。 當Gay受傷時用Matt Barnes取代先發，然後在剩下的比賽讓Collison成為先發控衛。 The results were mixed but since Collison was added as the full-time starter t he team has gone 12-14. While that doesn’t sound great it’s better than the team has been in years. Add in the fact that he’s the third highest score r on the team and averages the most assists on the team, it looks like the rig ht decision was made to make him the starter. 效果相當混亂，但自從Collison開始全職先發，球隊取得12勝14敗。雖然這聽起來不是很 好，但比國王隊在這季的任何時候都要好。除此之外，他是球隊得分第三高的球員，球隊 中平均最多的助攻，看起來讓他成為先發是正確的決定。 Even better, since Dec. 12, 2016, the Kings are 8-8 beating Memphis, Portland and Utah (playoff teams). In that time frame, Cousins averaged more assists, had a better shooting percentage, 3-point percentage and free throw percentage while only being slightly worse in points and rebounds. 更好的是，從2016年12月12日起，國王取得8勝8敗，其中擊敗了灰熊、拓荒者和爵士隊( 前八強)，在那段時間裡，Cousins有更多的助攻、更高的投籃命中率、三分命中率和罰球 命中率，只有得分和籃板稍微差了點。 In that time frame, Collison started all 12 games, Cousins started 15 games, K oufos started 12 games, McLemore started 11 games and Barnes started eight gam es. Add in some Tolliver starts, and the team has seen some progress. 在那段時間裡，Collison先發了12場比賽，Cousins 先發了15場比賽，Koufos先發了12場 比賽，McLemore 先發了11場比賽，Barnes先發了8場比賽，並開始讓Tolliver打先發，球 隊看來已經取得了一些進展。 Oddly enough, the only player who has a winning record as a starter is McLemor e. The team was 8-6 when he started, but he averaged the least amount of minut es from guards in those 14 games (17.4 minutes) and didn’t even average six p oints per game. 奇怪的是，陣中唯一勝場數多過敗場的先發球員是McLemore，當他先發時，球隊是8勝6敗 ，但這14場比賽裡，他的出場時間是後衛中最少的(17.6分鐘)，平均得分不到6分。 I threw a lot of numbers at you but what does it all mean? Well, it looks like Collison is a good starter for the team. He’s not Stephen Curry or Russell W estbrook, but he’s done a good job for them so far and the team is competitiv e. 我丟了很多數字，但這代表什麼意思? 好吧，Collison看起來對球隊而言是很好的先發球 員，他不是Stephen Curry或Russell Westbrook，但他做得很好，球隊也很有競爭力。 Cousins is doing All-Star level things and Garrett Temple has been one of the most unsung players on the team both offensively and defensively. Cousins在做全明星級別的事， Garrett Temple一直默默地做好進攻和防守。 Maybe the team trades 80 percent of these players by next year, but right now the duo of Collison and Cousins seems to be doing a good job so far and with an eight game road trip coming up, they need to know who to trust going forwar d, and it looks like maybe they’re starting to figure it out. 也許這些球員在明年有80%會被交易，但目前為止Collison和Cousins看起來做得很好，隨 之而來的客場八連戰，他們需要知道未來可以相信誰，可能他們開始明白了。 資料來源 http://tinyurl.com/hdwe4kj 心得 1. Joerger還沒找到最佳的先發組合，不斷地變換先發陣容，球員也會無所適從，Malone 已經證明Cousins, Gay, McLemore, Collison可以成為全聯盟最有效率的先發組合，但Jo erger顯然有自己的想法。 2. Collison應該算是假控衛，印象中大部分時間都是Lawson在控球。 3. Joerger需要明白球隊缺乏什麼，該如何讓球隊進步，而不是一直在原地踏步，每場比 賽都面臨相同的問題：籃板無法鞏固、外線防守無力，外線命中率不佳。 4. 如果不想用新人，就尋求交易，不要落的兩頭空，既保不了戰績，又讓新人待的不開 心，最後也是走人。 --
